Hi,
I am looking for the Werner Schuhe who has been researching the
four generation of Heinrich Meyer of Neetzendorf / Boit= ze area.
It is abut two miles from Dahlenburg. I was able to contact some <=
/P>
Behrens of this area who were in th phone book through their neighbor,
Who could do some translating for me. I had very little info=
rmation
on the Johann Christopher Juergen Behrens familie. Born 10.04. 1739.
His= father Christpher Beherns was born
1700. and his father was Hans Behrens.
It was Juergen Christopher Juergen Behrens daughter Maria Elisabeth
Behr= ens b. 20.11.1803 who married Juergen Friedrich Meyer born
29.1= 1.1814 at Neetzendorf - Boitze. He died 1879
Juergen Friedrich Meyer father was Johann Juergen. b. 1772 at Rade=
nbeck. Johann Juergen died 03.11.1844. Johann Juergen had that I know
of th= ree sons including Friedrich who lived to be a man. Friedrich
may have had = Heinrich in his name. I haven't seen it mentioned in
church records.<= /P>
Johann Juergen b. 15.12.1806
Hinrich Juergen b. 03.10.1817
There may be another, but i have no data on him. his birthdate could
be = 1819.
Around 1845 after Juergen Friedrich Meyer had several children by =
Catharina Margaretha Luhmann, they became landowners at Oldendorf
and= worked as Park warden at Roethen at Gohrde.
I haven't found the Werner Schuhe family ties yet to see if their
Neetze= ndorf Meyer connect to mine.
I would like to mention one more thing about the Behrens family. I
don't= know if anyone else has ever incountered this. Has Peter
Albers once= mentioned to me that my church records of this Beherns
family mentioned a&= nbsp; ' take on' of some young ones through a
marriage. [ Gev.&n= bsp; 3) Juergen Hartig zu Ha=DFel, 3 jeunge
Leute. The young chil= dren were included in a marriage. In the
listing of children ma= ybe three different names of Behrens were
listed as father.
The first daughter had this 'Cathrine Dorothee Behrens, ist im H. =
Ehestande gezeuget von Johann Christoph Behrens, Hauswirt zu
Neetzendorf, u= nd Cathrine Dorothea Schultzen '. The mother and
Father I would presume to = be the parents would be Cathrine Dorothea
Schultzen and Johann Christ= opher Juergen Behrens. Perhaps he had a
fourth name of Heinrich.. The= other parents listed were Johann
Juergen Behrens, Johann Hinrich, an= d occasionally
Johann Christopher. The mother is the same throug= hout.
If anyone has any hints about the family Schuhe, i'd welcome the n=
ews.
The Behrens and Meyer lived in close vacinity there. The Behrens are
del= iberating whether My Behrens information connect to theirs.
Nothing ye= t about the Meyer family there. Most of the men in my
family up until= immigration to america had Heinrich in the name. so
I am hopeful. I = just haven't found that many Schuhe names.
Jo H. Meyer
